It'll be a quiet summer for us - rather different for you.

Make sure you come back in one piece and, when you do, get your arse down to London for some City Beers!

Obviously, had you had a car worth claiming, I might not have been so generous

Best foot forward, mate!

[Cara van Man]

Cheers. See you when I return. Hopefully.

no...going away on Ops.

Last time as I'm finished in Jan.

It's really odd, I just walked my littlun to school for the last time in the foreseeable future and I realised something....

Everything seems louder, I can smell stuff more, when walking home listening to my iphone words to songs seem more poignant, her eyes looked bluer, her face cuter.....

I'm coursing with adrenalin. I've got that feeling you get when you are heading to a scrap with the school bully.....nervous, but up for it.

I'm only gone for a month but I can see it being the maddest month of my life.

Ah, I see. Well good luck with it anyway.

And isn't it amazing how green this country seems when you return? Was almost a sensory overload for me on my last trip back from Brize.
Good luck

When I return from anywhere sandy I always love the greenness and the cold damp weather.

Rock and sand becomes tedious....and the constant 40 degree temperature.....;)

Keep your head down fella.

Thank you. We don't see eye to eye but I don't want to go away with any hard feelings with anyone.

Good luck fella, make sure you don't come home in an ambiwlans!

sorry, couldn't resist a ph-ism!

[Justayellowbadge]

Good luck my friend.

Remember, a way to ensure a safe return is to show all your mates pictures of your wife and kids as often as possible. Talk wistfully about all the wonderful new adventures you'll have when you get out.

Can't fail.

[cloggy]

Good luck and don't forget to take your tobacco tin.
